The per-worker _new_refs array is used to hold references that point into the collection set. It is populated during RSet updating and subsequently processed. In the event of an evacuation failure it processed again to recreate the RSets of regions in the collection set. Remove the per-worker _new_refs array by processing the references directly. Use a DirtyCardQueue to hold the cards containing the references so that the RSets of regions in the collection set can be recreated when handling an evacuation failure.

Fixes a race on the dirty card queue completed buffer list between worker thread(s) performing a flush of a deferred store barrier (enqueueing a newly completed buffer) and worker thread(s) in the RSet updating code claiming completed buffers. Removed the routine that removes elements from the completed update buffer queue using a CAS.

During parallel rset updating we have to make sure that the worker ids of the refinement threads do not intersect with the worker ids that can be claimed by the mutator threads.

6720334: G1: don't update RSets of collection set regions during an evacuation pause
Introduced a deferred update mechanism for delaying the rset updates during the collection pause

An update buffer is not processed correctly, which causes roots into the collection set not to be scanned and, hence, for the heap to be corrupted. The cause is that an object is accessed after it has been explicitly deleted, which causes a race.
